I wish I could find the video, but I still remember the final campaign speech given by George H.W. Bush in 1992.

I don't remember what he was saying, but his voice was shot and he seemed like he was on a bender.

It was like a bad impression of Dana Carvey doing his Bush impression on LSD.

I would be eternally grateful to anyone who digs up a video of that final election eve humdinger of a "God-damnit get out there and vote" speech he gave that day.

Earlier today, (or it may have been last night), jberryhill, you wrote several fantastic explanations about the civil lawsuit against Donald Trump by a woman who claims to have been raped by him when she was thirteen. Your explanations of the legal process were cogent and clear. Thank you for all of the time it took for you to continue that thread; your clear-sightedness and patience were remarkable.

More importantly, you illustrated the lack of critical understanding by the MSM of this part of the Trump Story. Thanks and keep it up.

He started his campaign by slowly sinking.

The visual of him just standing there and going... down... was so poetic.

I enjoy a laugh as much as the next person, but this is on the level of a squirt-flower or joy buzzer.

No expensive gags for now, okay? Thank you.

For Christ's sake, we've got enough people wired to the collarbones over these last weeks. The whopee cushion's not the right choice at the moment.

Too many frayed nerves this last week to give people are jolt.
